Course Registration
Course Registration
Course offerings and course description are provided for the incoming exchange students to seek approval of course equivalency from a home university prior to their departure. The incoming exchange students are required to submit a course registration request form which contains a list of selected courses, upon acknowledgement of exchange coordinators at the home university, to the Center for International Affairs before the deadline. Due to limited seat availability in each course, a first-come-first-served course registration system is employed for appropriate class seat assignments. It is thus highly recommended that the incoming exchange students be proactive in seeking course equivalency approval from their home universities. Course change is possible upon class seat availability.
Incoming exchange students (graduates) wishing to take some courses at the BBA International Program or the Thai Studies Program have to contact the Center for International Affairs for official course registration as soon as possible. The earlier, the better due to limited class seat availability.
Class Audit
Class Audit
Incoming exchange students wishing to audit a course have to seek approval from instructors and academic advisors in the very first class session. No grades are given, nor are credits earned. The abbreviation AUD (Audit) will appear in an official transcript, provisional that class requirements set by instructors are completely fulfilled. The incoming exchange students deciding to convert a class audit to a regular class registration are strictly required to file a request within two weeks after the semester commences.
Course Addition / Withdrawal
Course Addition / Withdrawal
The first two weeks of the semester are considered “an official course addition / withdrawal” period, which results in no grade letter marked in transcripts. A course withdrawal after that period, but no later than 10 class weeks, is marked with “W” in transcripts. If the incoming exchange students wish to make a special course withdrawal after Week 10, they are required to seek approval from course instructors.

Visa Application
Visa Application
All incoming exchange students are required to obtain a Non-Immigrant ED (Education) Visa prior to their arrival in Thailand. The Non-Immigrant ED visa must be applied for at a Royal Thai Embassy or Consulate in the student’s home country (or country of residence) before departure.
Upon receipt of the Letter of Acceptance issued by the Center for International Affairs, students should proceed with the visa application in accordance with the regulations and requirements of the relevant Thai Embassy or Consulate. Exchange students are strongly advised to apply for the visa well in advance, as visa processing times may vary by location.
Entry into Thailand under tourist visas or visa exemption schemes is not permitted for participation in exchange study programs. Students must ensure that they enter Thailand with the correct Non-Immigrant ED visa to avoid complications with enrollment, immigration compliance, and visa conversion after arrival.
Further instructions and supporting documents for the visa application process will be provided by the Center for International Affairs upon confirmation of admission.
